Museum Het Schip is a unique social housing estate built in the famous Amsterdam School style of the early 1900s. Responding to the towers of the churches, the socialist organisation that built this complex wanted to have it's own Palace for the Working Class. It is still a social housing estate, and very interesting to visit.
